Give This Dad Some Candy

Father's Day 2008

In all the excitement leading up to my son's first birthday, it totally slipped my mind that Father's Day was coming up. I remembered that I had to get a card in the mail for my own father, but it wasn't until I saw the flyers in the weekend paper urging us all to forget the tie and buy Pop a big screen TV that it dawned on me that for the first time Father's Day would apply to me.

Celebrating Father's Day and a Year of Daddy at Home

Father’s Day 2008

I t seems funny that while my husband’s birthday sometimes falls on Mother’s Day, mine sometimes falls on Father’s Day. I’m not sure what, if anything, this means, but it seems nice that we’ll both have something to celebrate one weekend in May and June. I think I was actually born on Father’s Day, almost 34 (gasp!) years ago. And we thought Junior was going to be born on Father’s Day, but he ended up being almost two weeks late.
